it's so much worse than i imagined.
So much for pushing Biden left
Biden and Harris are not it if you want to push Democrats and the country left. They aren't as far right as Trump and his buddies, but the are left of center but pretty classic Democrats. Bernie was the guy to push things left, but the Democrats rejected him. Without a good progressive candidate in place to challenge in the primary, we won't see that push left. This election it's Harris as the best bet for keeping Republicans from doing serious long term damage to this country.
The US’s currently level of military aid is unsustainable, even for the most wealthy empire in history. Domestic production has been showing signs of not being able to keep up for a while now.
That’s hard to look at.
I wonder what Ukraine could have done with an extra $12 billion.
US sponsored genocide in Palestine, 1959-2024
I see some of the earlier spending during the Cold War. Seems we saw the writing on the wall before the collapse.
Cumulative cost?
Per year of course, a cumulative chart could never go down.
stealing money?
Do you have the data for this? It would be great to put indicators on the times that the US has conditioned aid to Israel.
edit: Oh I see its just a repost
Without it, Israel would have been swallowed up and slaughtered by the Persian and Arab Islamic hordes a very long time ago, so for half the Jewish population still left alive on planet earth, it's a blessing
You shouldn't feel comfortable being as racist as you are
The wrong people are in prison.
Damn. Mask off huh?
Israel is an illegitimate state built off of stolen land and dead bodies.
Israel is committing an ethnic genocide and with America's help is destroying Palestine which has a right to the land unlike the Israelis.
If there is a god I hope he is not merciful to the Israelis who have engaged in these atrocities.
From the river to the sea Palestine will be free
Also fuck you
hordes
Go fuck yourself

Palestine gets about $500 percapita in foreign aid, annually. Israel was around $200 last I checked.
Buddy, taking this chart alone (17.9b) and the wikipedia population of israel (9.842m), we get close to 2000 per capita.
Something here ain't mathing to me.
my numbers could be off
You mean in military aid or are you trying to muddy the waters? Humanitarian aid is the opposite of military aid. Without the military aid to Israel, it may be they don't need as much in Palestine.
